General Atomics Electromagnetic Systems joins General Dynamics Ordnance and Tactical Systems and BAE Systems in the competition to develop the Army’s next 155mm variant.

The system uses BAE’s Rapid Optical Observation and Kill (ROOK) program, which takes down threats by “confusing,” or jamming missile systems or drones.

Dans le cadre de la mission multinationale «strictement défensive» qu’il envisage de lancer avec la France, dès que les «circonstances le permettront», pour protéger le trafic maritime commercial dans le détroit d’Ormuz, le Royaume-Uni a fait savoir qu’il mobiliserait, outre le destroyer HMS Dragon, des moyens pour la lutte contre les mines, des drones navals...

Britain’s BAE Systems, as well as the British arms of US-based Anduril, Portugal’s Tekever and French manufacturer Thales, have been chosen for the concept demonstrator effort, dubbed Project NYX.

The Army said the AMPV 30 is not a replacement option for the XM30 program, but an executive said the vehicle “fits a different envelope.”

“The effect is marginal. I think the other customers will get vehicles earlier,” Tommy Gustafsson-Rask, general manager of BAE Systems Hägglunds, said during a media visit to its Ornskoldsvik site.

Findings also claim that the Royal Navy’s Astute-class nuclear-powered submarines have been “stretched” to, or “even beyond,” their limits.

“If you look at the [fight] in Ukraine on either side, it’s really hard to move out and get fires ready to go…. The Paladin is just incapable of it at speed,” Army Secretary Dan Driscoll said today.

BAE Systems unveiled a new high-thrust, refuelable satellite designed to support dynamic space operations–a demand company officials say is coming not only from the Space Force, but from commercial and civil customers as well.
